#10090, "Mods Page"


          

Hey guys, had a few quick questions about some of the mods on the mods section. Mostly the pvc intake and the free airbox.

I was going to get a cold air intake, but I was looking at the one from the pvc mod. How good is this? Should I try this or just buy a cai? Maybe do the free airbox mod, for until i get my cai?

btw: Maybe some more pictures of the mods I get confused reading some of them as I'm a newb. When i do any of these I'll try to document it with my digital cam.

CAI | GS-t Muffler | AFX UDP! | And occasionally no PS emoji

I did both the airbox mod and the PVC intake mod and both are great, the increase in power was quite substantial when doing the airbox mod. When I went from the bored airbox to the PVC intake the power increase wasnt that great atleast it didnt feel that great, but now I can get a really really good chirp on the 1-2 shift. Hell in the rain if I go WOT as soon as the rpm reach 4000 my tires just start spinning like crazy, couldnt do that with just the airbox mod. The reason I chose to do this over buying a $200 cai was that I plan on going turbo eventually and that would just be wasted money.

Get the ebay 45 dollar intake its well worth it you car will sound meaner and you can say it is a hundred dollar intake when its half the price. But free mods are always good. Late
